Show UUJME II!. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, MARCH 1, 1892. NUMBER 11 11 i INDUSTRIAL HOME. i I In our last issue we printed the .Memorial to Congress asking a gift of the Industrial Home building to the Territory. The Memorial has passed both branches of the Legislature and received the approval ot the Governor. The only change made in the .Memorial, that effects us was that giving us the use ot the building for live years instead of three. If Congress acts favorably and we see no reason why they should not, the bidding which we represent above will be our home for probably the full period of five years. The Industrial Home building was built, by the United States Government with the expectation that it would be used as a home by the plural wives of Mormons, after the passage of the laws against polygamy. Hut it never has been used to any extent and is practically unoccupied. As it will never be used lor the purpose for which it was intended some other use must be found for it and, t ie Memorial to Congress is to that end. to-da- y v 1 |
